Browser tools for managing cookie consent banners
Overview
Under regulations such as the GDPR and the TDDDG, website providers are required to use cookie banners to allow users to manage tracking and advertising cookies. However, many providers implement complex menus and submenus that make rejecting non-essential cookies more time-consuming than simple acceptance.
To manage these repetitive prompts, users can utilize various browser extensions. For the Apple ecosystem, the open-source extension ‘Hush Nag Blocker’ is available for Safari on macOS, iPhone, and iPad. For Windows and other browsers including Firefox, Chrome, Edge, and Opera, tools such as ‘I don't care about cookies’ can be used to automate or hide these notices.
